This seems to work for Linux kernel just fine when every pull request is audited.

This is Windows where kernel drivers are proprietary and written by random companies that do not care about anything but shipping things. The same company that messed up completely in usermode.
Would be an interesting step, if Microsoft would only allow open source drivers into Windows Update.

There could be another option: If you want to ship it without exposing the source, you need your drivers vetted by some third party that has access to the code.
